Career and Vocation

This short extract gives you a taste of your personal "Career and Vocation" horoscope by Liz
Greene. The small samples taken from various chapters convey an impression of the complete
vocation horoscope (18-25 pages) which can be
ordered as an E-Horoscope or a bound book in the AstroShop.

When we are children, people say to us, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" At that age, we
usually have dreams. When we are children, we are still capable of hearing the voice of the soul.
As we grow older, the questions change. There is no longer time for dreaming; we must now "face
reality" and think about how to survive in the big, bad old world.

This astrological report is about your vocation. It is meant to help you get a sense of what you
might be good at and what might be good for you, so that your working life has a meaning as well
as a pay cheque.

II. How You See the World

This chapter briefly describes your personal perspective on life and explains how you can best
express this in your career.

III. Your aptitudes and strengths

This chapter, which contains 8-10 pages, is one of the most comprehensive sections in the "Career
and Vocation" horoscope. Here is a short selection of three samples from the numerous aptitudes
described in the complete report.

An honest and realistic understanding of your fundamental strengths can help you to orientate
yourself in the world and put your energy into areas where you can hope to shine and achieve at
least many of your most cherished goals.

[..] If you are blessed with talent in an artistic
field, take it seriously and train it thoroughly, so that you can compete with confidence and a
knowledge that you have the necessary skills. Even if you do not have any specific ability at
acting, writing, painting, or performing, [...]

[..] Your strong intuition helps you to see potentials
and second-guess the marketplace. If you are of a more introverted disposition, this same
intuition can help you to see the potential in a character in a play, a piece of music, or the
plot for a novel; your imagination can [...]

[..] You need work which is unconventional in nature, so that you are not forced to express all your
vision through conflicts with authority which land you in trouble. You would probably be happiest
working independently, free of imposed structures and rules. Many so-called "New [...]

IV. Know Your Limits

This chapter describes your personal limitations and suggests how you can deal with these in your
professional life. In the complete horoscope, this chapter is about 5-7 pages in length.

Recognising your innate limitations can help you to focus your energy in the right direction and
get the maximum fulfilment from your work.

[..] This is really an issue of relationship, and it is in this sphere
that the potential achievements of your working life can be hampered by an unconscious assumption
of superiority. It could prove particularly difficult if you either work for others within a group
or organisation, [...]

[..] But sometimes you may become so enamoured of this world
of vision and all its possibilities - particularly the possibilities for being "taken out of"
yourself - that you may fail to recognise the limits of reality and the boundaries inherent in the
mundane world in which [...]

V. Working with Others

The two final chapters of "Career and Vocation" deal with the way you work together with your
colleagues in your everyday working life, and what success means to you personally.

One of the most important factors to consider in terms of your direction in life is how you work
with others. Everyone has his or her own style of relating in the working environment; everyone
has different needs and requirements.

VI. What Success Really Means to You

When people speak of "success", they generally mean a position of importance in the world's eyes,
or a job that yields lots of money and all the material pleasures and comforts that implies. But
success, in terms of the deeper issue of vocation, is a highly individual thing that means
different things to different people.
